measuredAntenna
Description
The measuredAntenna
object lets you perform port and field
analysis on the measured field data of an antenna or array. You can import measured field data
from a .txt
file, .csv
file, or .xlsx
file to the MATLAB® workspace and assign it to the relevant
properties of this object. The field data includes Cartesian electric and embedded electric
field components in V/m at the observation points, spherical coordinates of the observation
points, the phase center, number of excitation ports, measurement frequencies, and
S-parameters. The measuredAntenna

exciter of the curved reflector antennas from the antenna catalog with measured field data of
the exciter and perform fundamental analysis on the reflector antenna using the Physical
Optics solver.
